Hard Knocks

Hard Knocks is Canada's boutique combat sports channel, and it knows its lane. No NHL replays, no CFL, just fights. The programming swings heavily toward live events: Friday night cards from regional promotions, Saturday main events from the majors. The production isn't flashy like a UFC pay-per-view, but that's part of the appeal. Minimal studio chatter, more cage-side audio, less noise. If you're a fight fan tired of overproduced broadcasts, Hard Knocks feels like the old-school alternative. The schedule repeats library content, classic boxing matches, Pride FC archives, between live cards. It's not a 24/7 adrenaline feed, but when a live event hits, it's the only place in Canada airing it start to finish. For anyone tracking the local scene, this channel beats waiting for grainy streams. Hard Knocks live is essential if you want combat sports without the hype machine.
